Quote from Parkett
"I make the useful become not useful . . . It is a basis for dealing with perception and when you think about how people use an object, you're also using so-called knowledge in the sense that "useful" has a meaning. The meaning is the use. And that plays a great role in human understanding and culture."
Ai Weiwei in conversation with Jacques Herzog, Parkett No. 81, 2003
